       * 17% thought that Darth Vader's Death Star from Star Wars   
         is the furthest planet from Earth.   
      
      
   Other "facts" they believe include ...   
      
        * 20% believed Toy Story's Buzz Lightyear was the first   
          person to set foot on the moon rather than Neil   
          Armstrong.   
      
        * 20% thought 24's Jack Bauer was the brains behind the   
          Gunpowder Plot to blow up the British Houses of

          most recent player to be dropped by Fabio Capello.   
      
        * 33% did not know Alexander Graham Bell invented the   
          telephone. 9% believed it was TV personality Noel   
          Edmonds and 20% thought it was Charles Darwin.   
      
        * 5% thought Christopher Columbus discovered   
          liposuction, not America.
